This article presents the model of functioning of the socialist economic system based on empirical analysis of the Polish reforms. In Poland, there were several trials to carry out economic reforms, but always after a few years they were stopped. Therefore I will examine why the reforms failed, and why the system reforms ultimately stalled in deadlock. I focused on the basic architecture of the 'traditional' system, the cyclical nature of the structural reform of the socialist political determinants of economic reforms, interoperability and interactivity between platform and mechanism of its functioning. According to the analysis, even if the mechanism of functioning of the economic system will be improved, but will not be matched to the basic architecture, sooner or later, the operation mechanism will operate imperfectly, and it will return to the original mechanism functioning at the level of the basic architecture of the traditional system. This rigid platform creates the periodicity of the economic reform. Thus, the system does not function efficiently if the platform is replaced. However, the basic architecture of the platform is the ideological foundation of the socialist system as well and bringing it to change is the negation of socialism. These are the fundamental limitations of the economic reforms in the socialist system. This lack of flexibility led to the collapse of the system and inevitably leads to the system transformation.

In 2006 the favourable development of the Slovak economy had almost universal character. Robust economic growth was combined with a breaking improvement on labour market and with preserving satisfactory macroeconomic stability. Launching the operation of new production capacities of the foreign investors together with the fulfilled economic reforms had decisive impact on the good results in 2006 and will have a positive influence on the economic development of the Slovak economy even in 2007. The commitments connected with the expected entry into the euro area (January 1, 2009) will contribute to maintaining macroeconomic stability and to further advancement of real convergence towards the level of the West European economies.

The balanced positive development of the Slovak economy continued also in 2007 within the economic-political and institutional settings formed by reforms of the former governments. The present left-wing government introduced some slight corrections into the economy, in particular by strengthening the social dimension of using economic results. The positive trends in economic growth, macroeconomic stability and social situation of the population confirm that the corrections of economic reforms have only a partial character and they did not have any impact on the dynamics of the economy in 2007. The rapid economic growth was induced particularly by activities of the foreign investors. On the demand side, mainly growth of household and investment demand as well as growth of net export contributed to the economic growth. The paper deals also with development of production, external economic relations, labour market, monetary policy and public finance.

Since the collapse of Soviet Union, local and federal authorities in Russia are facing with two interrelated problems: economic transformation in the region and involvement of Russian Far East in the integration processes in North—East Asia as an equal trade partner. Both issues are associated with dynamic economic growth in China and high transborder activity of Chinese migrants. Problems such as shuttle trade on a large scale, illegal or half-legal employment of immigrants in Russian Far East and specific structure of trade (goods and services from China in exchange for raw materials from Russia) reveal the need for new forms of regional governance in this area. On current stage of globalization the consistent and transparent development strategy of depopulated and economically weakened Russian Far East requires taking account of Chinese potential. Many inhabitants of borderland, previously indoctrinated by the Soviet authorities, still consider the Chinese as an enemies. Therefore, adaptation to the new conditions should involve legal and economic reforms on the one hand and mental changes in Russian society on the other.
